L=2w-3 

w(2w-3)=54

2w²- 3w-54=0

A= 2 , B= -3, C= -54

sub values into quadratic formula
 i attached picture of formula

Final answer:  you will be given 2 answers 6 and -4.5. -4.5 is rejected since a negative value cannot represent length because that just doesn't make sense.

w=6

Check:
L=2w-3
=2(6)-3
=12-3
=9
  9*6=54

Therefore the dimensions of the photograph are 6 cm by 9 cm

A= l x w x (2x-3)= 54 2x^2 -3x-54 =0 FACTOR (2x+9) (x-6)= 0 use the term that will give you a positive answer, lengths cannot be negative x-6=0 x=6 width 2(6) -3= 9 length Hope this helps
